On
Tuesday, April 3 , at 12:15 PM
in ISTB1-401,
the Mathematics and Cognition Seminar
will present a discussion with Dr. Cindy Greenwood,
of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics,
on the topic of
"Understanding Neuron Firing and
Quiescence"
|
Abstract
We have models of neural firing. The models do not explain why neurons with a constant input fire apparently sporadically, as data shows they do. This talk will give you an insight into this phenomenon, which can be explained via the random openings and closings of ion channels. |
